Do you remember all those nights in December, and all the coffee we made to stay awake an up through the night. All the long drives home from the nights before we were closer knowing that there was nothing more than a sunrise with red skies when sailors take one but my ship hasn’t gone down yet.

Well I remember when all those nights and days we spent it was just us together when you said forever and I thought that nothing could get any better.

The rain fell hard that day but we fell harder, I thought I was smarter than this, was there something I missed. In the broken pieces of glass that reminded me of the past, and all the times that we shared in the spring, we fell harder than the rain.

Something better where we go back when, everything was better than my dreams and my fantasies, the reals and the make believes. I just wish it was all the same as it was. 

Pour me another glass to drink so I feel I have something better to think that this bottle of whiskey appears half full, but it stills seems half empty. As I pull my hair and my clenching fists these marks become clearer upon my wrist. I feel like my memories just an abyss of all of these negative thoughts.
